Overview
In June 2026, Bitcoin mining difficulty fell sharply by 10.09%, reaching 124.93 trillion. This adjustment is notable as the 11th-largest drop ever recorded and the second-largest negative adjustment this year. The decline reflects a reduction in network hashrate driven by multiple factors including weak Bitcoin prices, the shutdown of mining equipment, and the reallocation of power resources to AI data centers, which collectively pushed hashpower offline.
